WALKING THROUGH PARBOLD 18TH SEPTEMBER TO RAISE FUNDS
FOR MULTIPLE SCLEROSIS RESEARCH
'On 15th
September I will be starting a five thousand mile
sponsored walk to more than seven hundred Newspaper
offices and Radio Stations in mainland England to raise
crucial funds for Multiple Sclerosis research.
Could you, or could someone you know, help by walking
one mile with me and raising ten pounds for research?
I will walk
within a mile of 900 towns and villages on the first
section of the walk, through the north of England. If
just one person from each place would join me for one
mile and raise ten pounds, the total raised throughout
the north would be a significant boost for research.
I will be
walking through Parbold on 19th September.
To see other
towns I will be walking through please go to
www.walkamile.co.uk
I have
witnessed the frightening and devastating effects that
MS has had on my wife Gwen, who fifteen years ago, at
the age of 32, was stricken by the disorder. I have
watched a fit, healthy, young woman gradually being
forced to come to terms with a fearfully debilitating
illness.
There are
further details of the two Charities I will be raising
funds for, as well as a summary of my previous sponsored
walk at
www.aboutms.co.uk'
